Family. Responsibility. Stability. As the co-CEO of Bayou Enterprises
and the eldest of the Boudreaux clan, Beau is the epitome of these. Now
that his baby sister, Gabby, is happily settled down, Beau has moved
into the company loft in the heart of the French Quarter to be closer to
his office while his own home is built. He doesn't have time for
anything but the family he adores and the company that drives him.
If only the bewitching owner of the herb shop downstairs from Beau's
loft weren't so damn tempting.
Mallory Adams is living the life. The good life. The best life for her.
After years of hiding who she is and the gifts she's been cursed with,
Mallory opened her little shop in the French Quarter, offering herbs and
lotions for anything from soothing a sunburn to chasing those pesky
ghosts New Orleans is known for out of a client's home. Some call her
eccentric, and some say she's simply odd, and that's okay with her. She
is a bit odd, but in her experience, all of the best people are.
When an old pipe bursts in the loft above her store, flooding her
storeroom, Mallory comes face to face with Beau Boudreaux, and she
doesn't need the clairvoyant abilities that have been passed down
through generations to know that she'll never be the same. Beau is her
exact opposite: serious, straitlaced. He wears suits, for Pete's sake,
and probably wouldn't know the difference between arnica and flaxseed if
his life depended on it. But when he touches her, the electricity is
through the roof, and she's smart enough to know that a chemistry like
theirs doesn't happen every day.
Can two people so very different possibly find their way to happily ever
after?
